"The 2012 Henri Goutorbe Special Club is a wonderful, open-knit Champagne to drink now and over the next handful of years. Dried pear, spice, marzipan, hazelnut and chamomile show the gentle touches of age in an understated fashion that is undeniably appealing. A blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay from Grand Cru sites in Ay." Vinous
The Special Club formed in 1971. The original group consisted of 12 growers whose mission was to promote the concept of terroir-driven, estate-bottled wines from families who own, farm, and tend the land (aka grower champagne). Today, the club consists of 29 growers. Each February, wines are tasted from the prior harvest to determine whether they are good enough to declare a vintage. Each wine must pass two blind tastings to gain special club status. Those who pass are considered the best cuvée of that vintage.
